Taking a walk in the late evening is proving to be dangerous. The woods are changing, rotating, and swirling around you, disrupting your sense of direction. Voices, footsteps, and cries are puncturing the silence. Macabre faces are appearing on the trees, their branches act like hands trying to grab you.

Try to escape if you like, but know all attempts are futile and that you're not alone. You and many others are trapped and must compete to be set free. Many will fall at the hands of this death match and only one will come out on top. Can you survive?

1. You will have 6 days to complete your matches each round.2. Do not use the same team twice (change at least 2 characters) nor discuss your opponent's team.3. If your opponent does not follow his/her Trick or Treat, you may give a rematch or if you decide to take the win, provide a screenshot as proof.4. In the case of a glitch, bug, or disconnection, the "winner" decides whether or not to give a rematch.5. If there are unfinished matches, both players will be disqualified unless you PM proof to a NHQ moderator that:-----You PMed your opponent but received no response (screenshot your outbox/inbox); or-----Your opponent is inactive (screenshot opponent's profile)6. Beware of surprises throughout the tournament!7. All Naruto-Boards forum rules apply.

See the 3rd post for more info on each ToT number, we have 6 Halloween-themed images to represent them.

Please feel free to PM any NHQ moderator if you have any questions regarding the tournament.

There are 6 Trick or Treats (ToTs) to choose from, which determines the characters you may use to form your teams. Characters for each ToT will be revealed at the start of each round, and you may only use the characters shown in your ToT selection. It is preferred that you have 100+ characters unlocked, as it affects your ability in creating teams within your ToT.

The 2 numbers you choose when registering determine the ToT you will use.

The winners will each receive a gift tag as well as a special prize which will be announced at the end of the tournament. And no, it's not changing the forum ranks!

1. What is ToT?- ToT stands for Trick or Treat. There are 6 altogether. For example, 1. Hooooooooo is our 1st ToT and 2. That Shit Cray is our 2nd ToT followed by the rest. Refer to post #3 for details.

2. What is PA?- PA stands for Poisoned Apple. It consists of either weak or underused characters. You may not like it but that serves its purpose - You got tricked! Or not.

3. What are 1st draw and 2nd draw?- 1st draw is the first ToT number you picked during registration and 2nd draw is for the second ToT number. You have to stick with your ToT for certain rounds as shown below and can only use characters listed in your ToT.

4. How are characters assigned to each ToT?- It's random; each ToT will have characters that use Taijutsu (green), Bloodline (red), Ninjutsu (blue), and Genjutsu (white) chakra.

5. When are characters assigned to each ToT for 1st draw and 2nd draw?- We have prepared them before the registration started and it's just a matter of time before revealing 2nd draw (wait for round 3).

6. How many characters are in each ToT?- Each ToT consists of 25 characters. However, October's batch is banned and will not appear in any ToT.

7. Do we have to use our selected ToTs in all our matches?- Yes, you need to stick with your selected ToTs (2 numbers you picked during registration) in all matches. Refer to 3rd question on which ToT you need to use for certain rounds.

8. Is there any way that we could change our ToTs?- At the moment, no. You have to stick with them for all matches. Hmm...We may or may not have this kind of reward but let's just wait for more surprises. :3

9. What about the Potion?- It's a small reward from us to give you more advantage in the next round. Only those who play their matches are entitled to this reward. Auto-win for any reason without playing will be excluded. We may or may not give rewards in each round but let's just wait for surprises. :3

10. What can I do with the Potion?- Please see Post #3 for Potions and their descriptions. Potions will be revealed at the beginning of each round.

11. How do I know if I get a Potion?- The first few people to complete their matches will be guaranteed a potion, the remaining potions will be given randomly. However, a larger proportion will be given to those who complete their matches early!

The sad truth is that justice is an illusion. A fairy tail for children. There is no light path that always leads to good, nor dark path that always leads to evil. To believe that—to see the world in black and white—is missing half the picture. Instead of clinging to a false sense of justice, hold strong to something true... The desire to do what you know is right and protect the ones you love. Remember that, and find solace in it.
